When saddle stitching, we collect and collate the page signatures, cut, fold, and insert them one inside the other before stapling them together down the central crease. In most cases, we use two wire staples which we insert from the outer edge and crimp securely on the inside. At QinPrinting, our saddle stitch results are excellent, as once we&#8217;ve printed the pages, we use a specialized, state-of-the-art &#8220;stitching machine&#8221; which automates the process and eliminates human error.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a0a9d95 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a0a9d95\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1290\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qinprinting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Saddle-Stitch-Binding-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-15955\" alt=\"Saddle Stitch Binding\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7e6130 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"f7e6130\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d6654b toc-support elementor-toc--minimized-on-tablet elementor-widget elementor-widget-table-of-contents\" data-id=\"4d6654b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;headings_by_tags&quot;:[&quot;h2&quot;],&quot;exclude_headings_by_selector&quot;:[],&quot;no_headings_message&quot;:&quot;No headings were found on this page.&quot;,&quot;marker_view&quot;:&quot;numbers&quot;,&quot;minimize_box&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;minimized_on&quot;:&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;hierarchical_view&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;min_height&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;min_height_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;min_height_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"table-of-contents.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toc__header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toc__header-title\">\n\t\t\t\tTable of Contents\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toc__toggle-button elementor-toc__toggle-button--expand\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"elementor-toc__4d6654b\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-label=\"Open table of contents\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-chevron-down\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toc__toggle-button elementor-toc__toggle-button--collapse\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"elementor-toc__4d6654b\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-label=\"Close table of contents\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-chevron-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-toc__4d6654b\" class=\"elementor-toc__body\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toc__spinner-container\">\n\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"elementor-toc__spinner eicon-animation-spin e-font-icon-svg e-eicon-loading\" aria-hidden=\"true\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 1000\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M500 975V858C696 858 858 696 858 500S696 142 500 142 142 304 142 500H25C25 237 238 25 500 25S975 237 975 500 763 975 500 975Z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ed0c723 elementor-widget-divider--separator-type-pattern elementor-widget-divider--no-spacing elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"ed0c723\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\" style=\"--divider-pattern-url: url(&quot;data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns=&#039;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&#039;

Typically, the page count for this binding is between 8 and 64 pages. It depends on the paper&#8217;s thickness. For example, if we print the interior pages on 105 gsm art paper, the maximum page count would be 64. If we print the interior on 128 gsm art paper, the maximum page count would be 48. So, the thicker the paper you choose, the lower your maximum effective page count will be. We recommend keeping your page count to 48 or under for the best results and to make sure that your overall book thickness doesn&#8217;t exceed 0.1&#8243;.

For a children&#8217;s book, perfect bound is often the better option.<\/li><li>Usually, saddle stitching is done with a self-cover, whereas for perfect binding the cover paper is thicker than the interior paper.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-11cb81d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"11cb81d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1290\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qinprinting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Saddle-Stitch-vs.-Perfect-Bound-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-15963\" alt=\"Saddle Stitch vs Perfect Bound\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5ec2392 elementor-widget-divider--separator-type-pattern elementor-widget-divider--no-spacing elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"5ec2392\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\" style=\"--divider-pattern-url: url(&quot;data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns=&#039;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&#039; preserveAspectRatio=&#039;xMidYMid meet&#039; overflow=&#039;visible&#039; height=&#039;100%&#039; viewBox=&#039;0 0 126 26&#039; fill=&#039;black&#039; stroke=&#039;none&#039;%3E%3Cpath d=&#039;M10.7,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L0.7,17L4,13.1L0,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L10.7,6z M23.9,6.6l4.2,4.5L32,7.2l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9L32,19.1l-3.9-3.3l-4.5,4.3l-2.5-1.9l4.4-5.1l-4.2-3.9L23.9,6.6zM73.5,6L76,8.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L63.5,17l4.1-4.7L63.5,8l2.3-1.3l4.1,3.6L73.5,6z M94,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4L94,20.1l-3.9-5l-3.9,4.2L84,17l3.2-3.9L84,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.2,3.9L94,6z M106.9,6l4.5,5.1l3.9-3.9l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9l-1.6,2.1l-3.9-4.2l-4.5,5.2l-2.5-1.9l4-5.4l-4-4.3L106.9,6z M53.1,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,4.6l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-4.5l-3.5,4.5L43.1,17l3.2-3.9l-4-4.5l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L53.1,6z&#039;\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E&quot;);\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c779d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4c779d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" id=\"pdf\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What Are the Advantages of Saddle Stitch Binding?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d7e3f0f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d7e3f0f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Neither saddle stitch binding nor perfect binding is better than the other <em>per se<\/em>. It all depends on your project, the style, design, page count, market, and more. But let&#8217;s look at several of the primary advantages of saddle stitch binding which may help you further in making your choice.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-986d6e3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"986d6e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li>It is a cost-effective, affordable binding method ideally suited to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.qinprinting.com\/booklet-printing\/\">booklets<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.qinprinting.com\/magazine-printing\/\">magazines<\/a>, and\u00a0<a href=\"\/brochure-printing\/\">brochures<\/a>. So, if you are publishing any of these, we&#8217;d recommend you give saddle stitch serious consideration.<\/li><li>It has a short production time, which makes it ideal for quick-turnaround or repeat projects (such as a monthly or quarterly magazine).<\/li><li>You can open a book with saddle stitch binding flat. If the images or photos cross two pages in a spread, the crease in the saddle stitch doesn&#8217;t interfere much with the effect; whereas with perfect bound, you lose the middle section where the pages meet the spine.<\/li><li>You can use this method even if you have a very short production run (i.e., you only need, say, 100 copies) and still make savings, compared to perfect bound or hardbound books which have higher minimum order quantities.<\/li><li>You can make books or booklets in which we make the cover of a paper that is of the same thickness as the paper inside. We know these books as &#8220;self-cover&#8221; books. This makes it a more economical option if you have a limited budget.<\/li><li>The practical range of effective size options is greater with saddle stitch books than with perfect bound, which becomes unwieldy if they get too big.<\/li><li>As no extra &#8220;bulk&#8221; is involved in the saddle stitch method\u2014just a couple of almost weightless staples\u2014it means the books are lighter and less costly to ship and distribute.<\/li><li>With saddle stitched books, you can choose from an array of hundreds of paper types to create something unique and beautiful from your design.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d75992 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2d75992\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Those are just a few of the advantages of opting for saddle stitching. We&#8217;d recommend it as the optimal solution for any publication with 48 pages or fewer and when you need to keep costs down and get a quick turnaround. But don&#8217;t think of saddle stitching as only a budget option: a well-made saddle stitched book is an attractive object and has a lot of appeal. It&#8217;s all down to the paper choices, the design, any special finishes, and, of course, the content.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-967e864 elementor-widget-divider--separator-type-pattern elementor-widget-divider--no-spacing elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"967e864\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\" style=\"--divider-pattern-url: url(&quot;data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns=&#039;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&#039; preserveAspectRatio=&#039;xMidYMid meet&#039; overflow=&#039;visible&#039; height=&#039;100%&#039; viewBox=&#039;0 0 126 26&#039; fill=&#039;black&#039; stroke=&#039;none&#039;%3E%3Cpath d=&#039;M10.7,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L0.7,17L4,13.1L0,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L10.7,6z M23.9,6.6l4.2,4.5L32,7.2l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9L32,19.1l-3.9-3.3l-4.5,4.3l-2.5-1.9l4.4-5.1l-4.2-3.9L23.9,6.6zM73.5,6L76,8.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L63.5,17l4.1-4.7L63.5,8l2.3-1.3l4.1,3.6L73.5,6z M94,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4L94,20.1l-3.9-5l-3.9,4.2L84,17l3.2-3.9L84,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.2,3.9L94,6z M106.9,6l4.5,5.1l3.9-3.9l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9l-1.6,2.1l-3.9-4.2l-4.5,5.2l-2.5-1.9l4-5.4l-4-4.3L106.9,6z M53.1,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,4.6l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-4.5l-3.5,4.5L43.1,17l3.2-3.9l-4-4.5l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L53.1,6z&#039;\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E&quot;);\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ab1601f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ab1601f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Tips for Getting the Best Out of the Saddle Stitch Binding Method<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-362f784 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"362f784\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The saddle stitch binding method is optimal for printed magazines and booklets.

This gives you the opportunity to design full-spread illustrations and graphics that will make the interior more dynamic, unique, and visually appealing. A &#8220;spread&#8221; is two pages, left and right, both visible at the same time and considered as a single design field.<\/li><li><strong>Consider size and orientation\u2014<\/strong>saddle stitching opens up a broader range of size possibilities than many other binding styles. We make saddle stitch books ranging from 95 mm by 120 mm up to 305 mm by 420 mm, but we also offer a full customization service, so if you have an unusual size concept, talk to us, as we can probably print and bind it for you. And don&#8217;t forget that not all books, brochures, and booklets need to be narrower at the top and bottom and longer down the sides\u2014so-called portrait orientation. We can orientate them the other way in landscape orientation, or even equal-sided to make a square.<\/li><li><strong>You can get creative with paper<\/strong>\u2014your choice of paper is important to get the perfect outcome from saddle stitch binding. We can offer you a vast range of paper stocks in different weights, types, and textures. The best thing about this binding method is that you are free to choose either a heavier cover paper or something that has the same weight as the paper you use inside. If you want your booklet or magazine to be much more robust and resilient, you can also opt for laminating the cover. Our stunning range of papers will truly make your booklet stand out.<\/li><li><strong>Remember the &#8220;rule of four&#8221;<\/strong>\u2014the saddle stitch binding method involves taking larger printed sheets and folding them to form the pages. The mathematics of how we print these sheets\u2014known as signatures\u2014means that your total page count must always be in multiples of four: 16, 32, or 48 pages plus four for the cover sheet are the most popular and effective options.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9b34dea elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9b34dea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1290\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qinprinting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Saddle-Stitch-Binding-Method.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-15964\" alt=\"Saddle Stitch Binding Method\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e6aedbf elementor-widget-divider--separator-type-pattern elementor-widget-divider--no-spacing elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"e6aedbf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\" style=\"--divider-pattern-url: url(&quot;data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns=&#039;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&#039; preserveAspectRatio=&#039;xMidYMid meet&#039; overflow=&#039;visible&#039; height=&#039;100%&#039; viewBox=&#039;0 0 126 26&#039; fill=&#039;black&#039; stroke=&#039;none&#039;%3E%3Cpath d=&#039;M10.7,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L0.7,17L4,13.1L0,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L10.7,6z M23.9,6.6l4.2,4.5L32,7.2l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9L32,19.1l-3.9-3.3l-4.5,4.3l-2.5-1.9l4.4-5.1l-4.2-3.9L23.9,6.6zM73.5,6L76,8.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L63.5,17l4.1-4.7L63.5,8l2.3-1.3l4.1,3.6L73.5,6z M94,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4L94,20.1l-3.9-5l-3.9,4.2L84,17l3.2-3.9L84,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.2,3.9L94,6z M106.9,6l4.5,5.1l3.9-3.9l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9l-1.6,2.1l-3.9-4.2l-4.5,5.2l-2.5-1.9l4-5.4l-4-4.3L106.9,6z M53.1,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,4.6l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-4.5l-3.5,4.5L43.1,17l3.2-3.9l-4-4.5l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L53.1,6z&#039;\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E&quot;);\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c9c02cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c9c02cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Talk to Us!<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa05341 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fa05341\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Your choice of binding option makes a significant impact on the appearance and quality of your finished book, the design process, and the price.
